Mother Switches Daughter’s Musical Instrument to Keep Her from Singing

I read the true story about a woman who bought her daughter a really nice Baby Grand Piano for her birthday. A few weeks later, one of her friends asked her how her daughter was doing.

“Oh,” she said, “I persuaded her to switch to a clarinet.”

“How come?” asked the friend.

“Well,” – she paused - “with a clarinet, she can’t sing.”
